Read MoreLast week’s ugly produce box came with a bunch of small onions and a gigantic fennel. With the chilly weather we are having, I was craving something nutty, toasty, and caramelly. I decided to make a quinoa dish with them instead this week. I wanted to keep the lovely roasted flavors as the highlight, so I complimented this dish with a light lemon dressing just to brighten it up a bit. I didn’t have any arugula or baby spinach, but I imagine it would taste great in this dish. I’d add it to Step 6- right when the quinoa is done- using the residual heat to wilt the greens.
